Depressions and processes

What surrounds the skeletal muscles and connects them to other surrounding muscles? Tendons Connective tissues Fascia Muscle spindles

Fascia

Which mechanoreceptor is sensitive to changes in muscular tension and rate of that tension change, causing the muscle to relax, which prevents the muscle from excessive stress and possible injury? Golgi tendon organs Muscle spindles Interneurons Joint receptors

Golgi tendon organs

Calcium is often associated with bone health, but why is it also important for muscular function? It helps transmit the motor signal. It converts ADP back to ATP. It stimulates actin and myosin activity. It helps the nerve impulse cross from the synapse into the muscle.
